    By VERA Files  |  Aug 02, 2023 1:24 AM

Ibinase lang sa inyong […]

    By Tita C. Valderama  |  Dec 12, 2022 11:30 AM

    Mere mention of the word “maharlika” already sends shivers down the spine of many, particularly those who keep unforgettable memories of the abuses of martial law and the administration of the dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr.

    By Christian Esguerra  |  Sep 23, 2022 8:10 PM

    “Move on!” ‘Yan lagi ang sinasabi ng pamilyang Marcos para sanggahin ang kritisismo sa kanilang bersyon na maganda at masagana ang buhay noong panahon ng Martial Law sa ilalim ni Ferdinand Marcos Sr. Hindi sila umaamin sa mga pang-aabuso; hindi rin sila humihingi ng tawad. Ganun na lang ba ‘yun?
